[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2744294, member: 118816"] Interesting chart. The only issue I see with it is knowing what the actual temperature of each cartridge is. The outside air temperature, while useful has little to do with the internal temperature of the cartridge case. It may be 70 degrees out but that box of ammo laying out in the sun the internal temperature, like your car on a sunny day can be many degrees hotter. Same goes for any ammo stored in that car. I guess one could use one of those laser temperature sensors that mechanics use to check the coolant or exhaust temperatures to check each cartridge before firing to check case temps, and for benchrest shooters that could be an option but for someone hunting or shooting competitively not very practical.
